    whats your specs jimy? listen if it is anything like mines you shouldn't worry, as well as it does not all have to be maxed out i got a lot of pleasure playing it the way it is, i also now will turn the HBAO off as it hurts my eyes and cant get any kills rofl. full screen issue resolved, because of eye candy in the menu lol i could not see the 'turn on full screen' option.

    EDIT:

    Okay so i played another game, nice one too i came out first place lmfao! anyways good teamwork as well, attached is a pic of my settings. I played the game smoothly no hiccups, i get a few flickers of lighting but that just might be the beta. All in all the settings i played on were very smooth, uninterrupted game play, i got lag here and there at time but nothing too serious, as well as on the in-game chat some people complained about lag too, but it was minor hiccups that's all.

    so to sum up, very good experience, i can see this game is going to be off the charts! the only thing i hate is rush mode (i hate rush in general), i would have preferred it if they put Caspian border but the devs have their reasons and i respect that, cant wait for final release!

        Still no beta key for me and it is almost 7pm US central time.

          From what I have read at the Battlelog forums, the beta Nvidia drivers only help if you have a 560 or above. If you have any other card, it can actually hurt performance.

          For me, my FPS was the exact same with or without the beta drivers. But some people have reported success. Worth a try if you don't think you are getting proper performance.

                Now 11.9 is available. But then I see a reference to 11.10 in this article: http://csnation.net/content.php?556-...lefield-3-Beta.

                Does anyone know where this can be found?

                  Slorup, my guess is the creators of the drivers would have them. So you might try AMDs site. I would send you a link, but I moved away from ATI a long time ago and do not know where or how their site works, which must be hard because you cant find the drivers.

                    Thanks Crunch,

                    I have tried the AMD webpage and will continue to do so.

                      Hey Slorup,

                      Check this post out for links:


                      Also, DICE added links to the Battlelog for the latest drivers on the main page.
